Royal Mail Signed For® 2nd Class
With a signature on delivery for peace of mind
Please note
The health and safety of our colleagues and our customers is our number one priority and has been front of mind throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. To protect our people and customers, we continue to refrain from handing over hand-held devices to customers in cases when a signature is required. The recipient’s name and confirmation of delivery can still be viewed at royalmail.com/track-your-item.
